I have something to ask all of you? Do you believe there's God? Do you think that you need a God or 'Nah, I don't need a God, my life is alright'?

This is through my experience of sharing the gospel, no matter in school, on streets or your own group of friends with my friends from SYFC. What does SYFC stands for? SYFC stands for 'Singapore Youth For Christ'.

We will share gospel to people. The people we meet are not all so open to this topic, but some are willing to listen, willing to repond. I believed that everyone of them we had shared the gospel to them is not by chance but it's God's plan that they shall hear the good news and truth that we bought to them. They may not believe in what we say today but I believe they will accept this truth now. But maybe not through us.

Sometimes they will ask us. 'Can you prove to me that God does exist? If you can, I will believe in what you say.' But my only reply will be an example: 'God is just like the air, can you see the oxygen that we are breathing everyday? No right? Since you can't see it how can you believe that what you breathe in is oxygen and it actually exist?'

And usually after we shared the gospel, we hope to get some respond so we let them choose like saying: ' There's 3 people after hearing the gospel, Person A wants to accept God's love and believe in Him, Person B wants to know more about God, Person C wants to live their own life, (' Nah, I don't need a God, my life is alright')

For those who choose Person A, we are very happy for them. They have found the truth and the way. We will pray for them. They have accepted God into their life. It's a new life. ( We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. - Roman 6:4 )

For those who choose Person B, we will pray for them. Praying that they will find the truth and the way. Can accept God as their Savior and their God. Good that they want to find out more.

For those who choose Person C, we will still pray for them. We are not giving up on them. We just hope someone will still lead them to the truth one day.

In my point of view of those people who choose Person C (' Nah, I don't need a God, my life is alright') thinks that life is smoothe and everything is great. Life is so happy. Every happiness is written on the face. It's just at this point of time. Life will never be so smooth there's sure ups and downs. When people tell me that their life is perfect, they are always happy. I doubt it's true. I believe each and everyone of us have our own problems. Like i say before, it may not be that your face is happy. You feel happy meaning you dont have problem. Your problem is even bigger, because you not facing it but rather you're avoiding it. You are just telling yourself that everything is going to be fine. This will work when the problem is minor. If the problem is major it's impossible for you to be so calm to tell yourself that everything is going to be fine.

What you experience now, the happiness that you are having now, it does not last forever, it maybe here now, but gone tomorrow. Who can be sure that the happiness that you own now will be forever?

For example: You are borned in a very rich family. You are living in a super big house, grand car to drive you about and to school, with all the branded stuff and living happily with your family and your friends and who knows one day, your dad is filed bankrupt. Your big house have to sell, you have to live a life that you never imagine you would ever live in. Live in small house that you have squeezed with your family members. Seize every chance when you can use the toilet. No more grand cars but public transport. No more branded stuff. Your smile on your face had disappear and more frown had appeared on your face. You have work because not enough money for your education. And you are sicked of this kind of life. Isn't that you are at the edge of giving up and falling down?At this point time is it possible to tell yourself that 'well it's alright, everything is going to be okay' ?

This is just an example. Your case maybe different but all in all it shares a similaries and that is you find that you are at the edge of giving up and falling down and who do you want to turn to? Your parents? Your friends? Your relative? Who? I believe there are somethings that maybe hard to share or talk about to friends, relatives or even family members. And now I want to introduce someone who you can turn to and He can be your listening ear, your soul's healer, your Advisor, your Counselor. And He is Jesus Christ. He is always there for you. He will not forsake you when you needed Him most. He will be your greatest help.

Listen to me. for i think everyone need God. We are limited, alot of things are beyond our human control. You may not need Him now but you will realise that you need Him one day. And I can be sure that He will still be there for you. No matter how many times you turn away from Him, you rejected His love. He will never forsake you but rather embrace you with warm and love.

Trust me! You will realise this one day.
